Hi, I need some guidance. I have completed my skills assessment, english exam and logged my EOI for visa 190. I also got an invite to apply for sponsorship to the state that i applied for. I am currently in the Philippines today but will be moving to UK for a year for an assignment. Do I need to change the address in my EOI pag transfer ko? Do i need to change my address in my skills assessment?

Thanks in advance for the answer.

batman

@randyalegre no need for now. Di kapa naman nag move.

batman

@auyeah

Welcome, good you find it helpful.

ynnej09

@auyeah ask ko lng if how to attain the partner skill points dear? thank you

I am currently 75 points for 189. i am thinking i need to improve points pa.

auyeah

@ynnej09 Hello! To claim the 5 points for partner skills ito po ang need:

Proof that when you were invited to apply for this visa, your partner:

was under 45 years old
had competent English

How to prove?

https://archive.homeaffairs.gov.au/lega/lega/form/immi-faqs/how-can-i-prove-i-have-competent-english

had a suitable skills assessment from the relevant assessing authority for their nominated skilled occupation. Your partner’s nominated skilled occupation must be on the same skilled occupations list as your nominated skilled occupation.

Source:

https://archive.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/supporting/Pages/skilled/partner-skills-documents.aspx

Personally, I took the PTE academic and had my skills assessed by ACS so we can claim points for partner skills. 🙂

ynnej09

@auyeah thank you and this is so helpful. Looks like I can’t claim for that points coz yung skills /degree nya is not same with me based on the nominated skilled list

randyalegre

@batman thank you for the reply sir. I will be moving to UK next week. Ano po need ko iupdate? so far ito yung info na meron akong addressess: 1.) skills assessment via ACS 2.) EOI 3.) Application for state sponsorship.
